Start by brushing out
any tangles.
-
Lay doll over the edge
of a sink with her hair hanging down. Wet the hair taking care not
to get any water down the hole in the neck. Apply a small amount
of shampoo, adding more if needed. Scrub the hair thoroughly but
gently being careful not to tangle any hair. Rinse. Repeat
if hair is very soiled.
-
Next apply a small amount
of creme rinse or conditioner and comb through the hair. Rinse thoroughly.
-
Towel dry hair and comb
out. Leave wet if you are going to curl it. Otherwise, you
can put a sock over her head and let it dry. The sock will keep her
hair nice and flat. Use a hairnet if you prefer to have the back
hair all curly. Scoop the long hair into the net first, then bring
it up and over the dolls head.

Use the end of a rattail
comb to separate sections of the hair into manageable sizes.
-
Using end papers, fold
one in half over the end of the strand to cover uneven tips. Starting
at the tips, roll onto sponge rollers in the direction indicated in the
instructions.
-
When a pincurl is required,
usually on the short bangs, twirl the hair around your finger and bobby
pin it to the head. The number of pincurls needed depends on the
amount of bangs your doll has.
-
Let the set hair dry
at least a week before combing it out and styling it.
